While the weather may have canceled some of the planned walk day activities, it did not cancel hope…hope to believe in the possibility of recovery, wellness and the potential in all.

There be was Music provided by Soundscape Entertainment, AIM High Studio warmed up the walkers in the wind and rain, people enjoyed delicious samplings from Bake’n Bacon food truck, Dunkin Donuts, and Philly Soft Pretzels. 

They are grateful to their participants, sponsors, donors and volunteers whose resiliency raised close to $105k to help fund NAMI Montgomery County PA’s free mental health support, education and advocacy programs and events.

The walk brings together members of the community to combat stigma, promote awareness and celebrate hope and recovery.
